Amp/Preamp Asylum Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here. |
|
Times have changed and I'm looking to simplify my system. Currently running Welbourne DRD 300b amps w a Wright Sound tube preamp, Metrum Octave dac, cardas golden cross cables.
I would like some power, say 60-100+ watts to open up future speaker choices, and would even like a built-in dac. I just don't listen the way I used to (damned amazing headphones killed my speaker system) and would like to get rid of the clutter of boxes and cables etc.
Price limit is 4k, and I'd be happy to come in well under that. So far, it looks like a Hegel h80. All suggestions welcome...
